Hibernate: Query without SQL-strings?

Is it possible (and if yes, is it advisable) to do queries of Hibernate-mapped data without using SQL-strings, but some OOP way instead?

It's possible using Criteria, but I think the queries are generally more understandable when using HQL with parameters. Still, Criteria does work well for the queries that are quite dynamic (I've seen people concatenate HQL strings for dynamic queries, and Criteria is cleaner in those cases).

I am using linq. But HQL uses entities, so it should be named object-oriented :)
